Moments don't deserve to end
If you're one of
those who believe that
moments should be
preserved, think again.
Moments don't deserve
to end; they don't deserve
to be idealised.

Fiction
I want to be buried
in the pages of my
fictitious world.
Where words never
end, never hurt
and never more beautifully written.

In a name
Of course I wouldn't recommend it. It's
Pitch black outside
Honey. Don't go searching for me for
I know Im never
Ever to be found.

Riddle
You moody little thing.
You're never out when
I want you to.
whether alone or with
your friends;
whether captured or
set free.

Writhed
What is it like to hold
in your bare hands
my very existence?
A living and breathing
word with its own heartbeat.

I write for you
as if you were my ampersand,
a thin string between
sane & insane
† to my Dearest 22/2/2010

It's called letting go
I'll light up matches
to burn sheer longings,
memories, melancholies,
sorrows, blues and black
so i could have a night
with Morpheus again.

Signature
Words have always been
there for my satisfaction.
Small words. Simple words.
Yet they filled my spaces
by creating new ones.

Minimalism
Everybody goes
and fades and vanishes;
And I,
I grow in silence.

And I,
I grow in silence.

Threnody
I'd sit with you for
an eternity or two,
and hold your hand.
I'd hear you talk,
laugh when appropriate.
I'd shed an ocean
or two because you left
and I stayed.

Dependency (what do you fear the most challenge)
Moonlit eyes, vernal touch
and a golden embrace.
I slowly grow dependent
upon the things I
can never have.

Flowers
As if I've never developed
the ability to speak
I stutter. I stuttered,
upon seeing your pretty
face covered up with
crimson flowers.
